Bringing robotics to African schools

Fundi Bots’ mission is to use robotics training in African schools to create and inspire a new generation of problem solvers, innovators and change-makers.

Inspiring a new generation of innovators and change-makers

Through our programs, our young roboticists learn that science and technology is not for geniuses, millionaires and nerds alone, and they too can effect change upon the issues in their community that they witness and experience firsthand.

Spaces for Learning

Fundi Bots builds spaces where passionate young people can learn, grow and experiment with technology they would not otherwise have access to. Places where curiosity is fostered rather than feared, where failure is embraced, and where ideas, however crazy, are heard and explored.

Fostering Collaborations

Fundi Bots works with private enterprises, nongovernmental organizations, academia and other talented and interested parties to create environments where social, commercial and local solutions can be found for Ugandan problems

About Fundi Bots

We're using robotics training in African schools to raise a new generation of problem solvers, innovators and change-makers.

We focus on the technological process of building robots as a way for students to look at the world around them from a practical, solution oriented perspective. By guiding students through problem identification, brainstorming, collaboration, construction, programming, final deployment and system feedback, we show them how the problems around them can be solved through a technological approach and persistent reductive analysis.

We want to change the status-quo of education, facilitate technical innovation and provide better career and development opportunities for African children. Our activities provide hands-on, practical STEM education and access to resources that will shape their future and the world around them.
